Well, yes ... but some airlines might have some more customer friendly conditions. I remember a situation some years ago when our son (having booked a flight with Emirates to Europe) missed the flight because of a confusion of dates (clearly his fault) ... he was basically a "no-show" for them. I fully expected the ticket to be void, but he called them nearly a week after he missed the flight, and they happily reinstated his ticket at a date he asked for. I think he had to pay a $300 or so "administration fee".
Now this is customer service (and this for economy class).

Is it me, or is it still too early to tell, but the recovery in SP looks like it will be a slow flight up to cruising altitude.

In fairness to AIR, I recently returned from a European trip traveling AIR & Lufthansa. On return to NZ, I had to check in for my return flight from AUK to Wngtn. A helpful AIR staff member noted the 3 hour wait ahead of me with my scheduled flight and said how about we try and get you on an earlier flight. This was done for me and within about 1 hour I was on an alternative flight - at no extra cost. I considered it a v nice gesture and the episode made me v happy to be returning home with AIR.
( In another case I am aware of, AIR found an earlier flight for a family of 3 returning from the USA to Wngtn, saving them an hour on their journey, at no cost. A nice gesture.)

Yes this happens often with domestic flights, international as I said earlier to be fair to them they often have limited capacity to be flexible...

You and me both. Anyone else. Who still expects a recovery to the 220's in a few weeks?

Maybe saw that NTA per share as at June was only $1.76

less $0.35 for that dividend payout and add maybe $0.06 in profits since.
So only $1.47 now.
